THE CAMERAS

Durst Automatica

 

Made by Durst in Bolzano, Italy which is a bit unusual since they made enlargers, however they did make a few cameras, this is a 135 model made from 1956 to 1963. I bought this in Taree, N.S.W. in 1994, these photos are from 2013. The exposure system was a bit tricky to figure out and the film used came from a Chinese disposable camera. Lens is Schneider Durst Radionar, f2.8, 45mm. Prontor-SVS shutter 1sec to 1/300 and B.
